There's no denying that. The stitch up is in motion. The first step towards disregarding democracy and reversing the democratic decision.I thought that would please you
The amount that it was voted down by is a good thing because the EU will see that and realise that they HAVE to renegotiate - otherwise the default, written in law will be a leave on WTO which they fear more than anything.
An important point regarding a second referendum, which is where I'm certain we are heading. It puts Leave at a disadvantage because having already had their vote disregarded once, apathy will have set in and a 'Why bother when they just ignore us and stitch us up?' attitude prevails. Even if Leave won a second vote, who's to say that one wouldn't be ignored?.Remain will have been given basically 'A free second spin' and will grasp it with gusto.
I reckon they will be happy to see it go to a second referendum and take their chances with that.
Parliament has basically wasted the voting publics time for 2 years.
Quote<blockquote> Parliament has basically wasted the voting publics time for 2 years. </blockquote>No, Parliament has only now been consulted. May and her government has wasted the public's time for 2 and a half years. The obstinate woman could have consulted Parliament and the opposition parties a long time ago.
To be fair, whatever side you're on you couldn't beat all this for drama could you!. To people who couldn't care less it probably means nothing, but to those of us who are interested it's the equivalent of Den and Angie at Christmas 1986
The raving monster loony party policy to decimalise time makes more sense to me

Parliament agreed to give the electorate a vote and to implement Article 50.
No idea if there will be a second referendum or not. It's certainly more likely now than May's deal. But as I have said again and again, if, and if, I say again if, there is second referendum it must be legally binding.
How's The Eagle's lyric go?..."You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave"...
I've no doubt it will be....if the answers Remain.
So we were lied to in 2016?.That leaflet said...'This is your decision. The government will implement what you decide'.It didn't say....'The government will implement what you decide....as long as it can be defined'
Well at least if there is another referendum I can look forward to there being another leaflet drop because my downpipes need re doing.
